Hello everybody. I'm new to home brewing. I got the basic kit from Midwest supplies and am in the secondary fermentation phase of an all grain bevarian wheat. Unfortunately, I have a problem. I took my first finishing gravity reading. When I pulled out the hydrometer, it was thick, almost like a runny slime. I can't see a layer seperation anyware. I was very careful to sanitise everything . Anyway, any advice would be helpful. Thanks and i LOL foreward to years of home brewing.
 
It would also be helpful to post the ingredients and temperature and time of fermentation. If you went by the direction on some kits you could have taken a reading while there was still a krausen or yeast floating on top, which may have contributed to a slimy coating. Pics would be best too.
